Recombinant Rat Angiopoietin-1/ANG1 protein (His tag)

Angiopoietin-1 (Ang-1) is a secreted glycoprotein that plays a critical role in the development and maintenance of the vascular system. The angiopoietin (ANGPT) -TIE2/TEK signaling pathway is essential for blood and lymphatic vascular homeostasis. ANGPT1 is a potent TIE2 activator, whereas ANGPT2 functions as a context-dependent agonist/antagonist. Angiopoietin-1 can protect against pulmonary arterial hypertension, reduce the extent of fibrosis and remodeling in infarcted diabetic myocardium, and enhance tumor progression and metastasis.

Generally, lyophilized proteins are stable for up to 12 months when stored at -20 to -80°C. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-8°C for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20°C for 3 months.
